Tomorrow morning, the nominations for the 68th Primetime Emmy Awards will be announced. I've made detailed predictions in the top eighteen categories, and offered my best blind guesses for the Miniseries/TV Movie and variety categories below as well. I’m trying to limit my hopeful guesses in all categories, and I think selecting both Rachel Bloom and Gina Rodriguez to be recognized is pretty much the upper limit. Hopefully there will be some fun surprises and not some unfortunate snubs. Click on category headings below for full analysis in each race. I'm looking forward to the nominations, and you can expect analysis and reactions by category all day. Nominations will be announced starting at 11:30am eastern by Anthony Anderson and Lauren Graham, which is sure to be fun. Please offer your own predictions and thoughts in the comments below.
